Indianapolis, IN – In a surprise revelation that’s sending shockwaves across the WNBA community, Indiana Fever veteran Sydney Colson just shared a jaw-dropping update about her teammate Caitlin Clark — and fans are going absolutely wild.

During a behind-the-scenes interview on a Fever team podcast, Colson was asked about the vibe in the locker room and how the team is adjusting to the pressure of the spotlight. What she said next no one saw coming.

“Let me tell y’all something,” Colson smiled. “Caitlin Clark? She’s not just a rookie anymore. She’s already calling plays like a point guard with ten years of experience.”

Colson revealed that Clark has taken on a leadership role much faster than anyone expected — even the coaching staff. “She’s in the huddles, directing traffic, calling out defensive switches — it’s wild. Like, she’s already the floor general.”

But that wasn’t all.

Colson then dropped the biggest surprise: “Last practice, Coach literally handed Caitlin the clipboard during a timeout and said, ‘You draw it up.’ And she did — perfectly. We scored on the next play.”

The room reportedly broke into laughter and applause after the play worked to perfection.

Social media caught fire once the podcast clip aired. Fans flooded X (formerly Twitter) with reactions like, “She’s coaching now?! 😳” and “Caitlin Clark is HER.”

Hashtags like #CoachClark and #FeverQueen began trending within hours. The Fever’s official page even joined the fun, posting a photo of Clark holding a clipboard with the caption: “Just another day at the office.”

Teammates have echoed Colson’s praise. NaLyssa Smith commented on the post, saying: “She’s a basketball genius, fr. Her IQ is different.”

Clark has often been praised for her deep shooting and flashy passes, but what Colson revealed highlights a whole new side of the rookie — her mind for the game.

“She’s watching film 24/7,” Colson added. “She sends clips to teammates at 1 a.m. with notes. I’ve never seen a rookie this locked in.”

Fans and analysts are now questioning how long it’ll be before Clark becomes a team captain. Some are even calling for her to be involved in coaching decisions in real time — a rare honor for any player, let alone a rookie.

WNBA legend Diana Taurasi weighed in after hearing the news. “I’ve said it before — she’s not here to participate. She’s here to take over. And this just proves it.”

Colson also shared a lighter moment: “She’s humble, too. When we all called her ‘Coach Clark’ after practice, she turned red and said, ‘Chill, I still can’t parallel park.’”

The Fever are currently on a hot streak, and Clark’s growth — both as a player and a leader — is at the center of their resurgence. Head Coach Christie Sides has been tight-lipped about Clark’s expanded role, but after Colson’s reveal, fans are eager for confirmation.

When asked about it after practice, Clark simply smiled and said, “I’m just trying to help us win. I love this game, and I love this team.”

Whether or not the coaching rumors become official, one thing is clear: Caitlin Clark is evolving into much more than just a star shooter — she’s becoming the brain of the Indiana Fever.

And thanks to Sydney Colson’s candid reveal, fans now have even more reason to believe that the Caitlin Clark era has only just begun.
